public folder location #6

Hi,

I've just tried hosting the public/ folder. By default, it should be in the root folder, so next to /src/.

Perhaps it would be better to host this from /src/public (and include it in the kickstarter)?

Related question: is there a ("best Mantra practice") way for including public resources in a Mantra module? It's a bit odd to be restricted to a public folder if a module depends on specific resources (i.e. template images).

Cheers,

Sander

I am hosting public in my root folder as it is a resource folder. I am not sure how it would behave in the "src/public" folder. I guess this is on everyone's own preference.

That's no problem. By default, it doesn't work from the src/public folder. I am hoping there will be a way to include public resources in Mantra modules, but it seems this is not going to happen anytime soon.

In this webpack solution you can dynamically require resources and assets if I am not mistaken. You can even dynamically load CSS, please check out the documentation at the meteor-webpack website and check out their kickstart-flowrouter example.

That would be really great, thank you! Still, I hope I can include this via Webpack inside a Mantra module :). Again, thanks!

Just to be sure: you mean the npm meteor-webpack package, right?
